Hey everyone!
We're calling for earth defenders in the Great Lakes basin and surrounding regions to join the Michigan Coalition Against Tar Sands (MICATS) this coming July 29th - August 3rd, 2015 for our 3rd annual action camp, Rooting Resistance! We welcome everyone who cares about our sacred water to attend so we can all grow our networks and deepen relationships.
This family-friendly event will take place in southeast MI. We will be offering a weekend of true community building, education and workshops, an open mic (poetry/spoken word/music), overnight camping, and of course meals! You may camp out with everyone for the whole weekend, or just stay an hour.
Please register here so we know to expect you! http://j.mp/register-ac2015
Donations ( www.everribbon.com/micats ) towards camp expenses are appreciated, but no one will be turned away!
Some topics will include self-care, anti-racism/oppression conversations, Black Women/Lives Matter solidarity, movement building, direct action, environmental resistance history, tar sands &amp; climate change knowledge, art and activism, media training, arts and crafts for kids, and more!
Don't forget to sign up ( http://j.mp/register-ac2015 ), we hope to see you there!
One more thing, our camp will be a co-operative camp! This means that we all work together, share chores, responsibilities, etc. Be ready to sign up for a chore list, thanks!
Love, ♥
MICATS
